“The aga didn’t work which was a real shame as I wanted to cook with my daughter a b’day cake for my birthday.”

The heating didn’t work at all on arrival which was swiftly rectified the following day, however the heating was on constantly even though it was on timed. We turned off heating completely as the weather was warm but still the heating in the lounge and bathroom upstairs continued to work 24/7. It was like an oven. After 2 days it stopped working again which was a blessing. I suspect the boiler and aga needs looking at. Also there was a bbq but no garden furniture? There were no poo bags ...

There were no poo bags or treats for the dogs as promised.
We had a lovely holiday and the location and cottage itself was lovely, just a few things that need sorting would make it a 10/10. All of us commented on how comfy the beds were.
I would say that the bunks are not really suitable for adults and it needs to be made clear that the en-suite is to the bunk bed room, which is actually the main bathroom. The bunk bed room has no door and has a curtain to create privacy. You have to enter the bunk bed room to use the main bathroom upstairs, at night this is tricky to not disturb people using this room.
The cottage was perfect for the dogs and it was refreshing to be able to let them out in the secure garden.

“The house is in a beautiful spot it's starting to look a bit tired and could do with a spruce up .”

The sofas are very low and uncomfortable we spent most of the time sat at the dining table .The garden was over grown and could do with a tidy up . The large pond is open so if you have children or dogs that like water it could be a problem .

“This is my second visit to Trevellick Cottage.”

It is perfectly situated for great walks, ease of driving to other beautiful places, convenience of local shops if you have run out of something, and if you dont fancy cooking one night. The cottage had everything we needed, though the replacement of a cake in a box rather than the fresh scones I was expecting was a bit of a disappointment

“Trevillick cottage is a lovely detached property set in lovely gardens.”

It is approximately half a mile from the cliffs and coastal route walk. The cottage is very dog friendly as the ground floor is almost all stone flags or tiled,and the garden is almost secure to let them out alone,just needed a piece of wood at bottom of a gate to stop the little dog from escaping? It is well equipped with everything we required. There is a log burner in the sitting room and an Aga in the dining room. This was oil fired and on all the time making the cottage lovely and warm but also ideal for heating our Cornish pasties and pizzas etc.Had a walk along coastal route to Boscastle approximately 5 miles past Tintagel castle the cliffs etc are spectacular. We also walked over the fields via a public footpath to Tintagel village about 15 minuets,beware of the horse in one field,didn’t like us in his field tried to kick us on two occasions! There is another public walk just passed the cottage to Tintagel boycotting the horse but the styles are a bit high for getting over. We enjoyed our stop at Trevillick cottage and visiting the lovely little fishing villages in the area and would come back in the future. I would recommend Trevillick cottage as a lovely quiet base for exploring the beautiful county of Cornwall

“WOW - Fantastic cottage so welcoming and dog friendly, every facility you needed provided, the aga was a real bonus, lovely position beautiful walk with the dogs every day and the history surrounding the area was amazing such an interesting place to visit.”

Lovely cream tea on arrival courtesy of our host. Best holiday this year. I should just say and this is by no means is a negative comment against the cottage more advisory for anyone with mobility issues, my husband found the stairs very difficult, they are steep and narrow and there is a platform at the top to each room, also there was not a suitable chair for either of us to sit in as the sofa's lovely and comfortable as they are, were too low and we couldn't get up out of them without a struggle. However, this did not stop us from enjoying our stay.

“This is a beautiful cottage in a stunning location.”

As I visited as a lone female traveller I did find it a little isolated at night but this did not spoil my holiday. There was a very welcome cream tea waiting for me on arrival & also some milk in the fridge all of which is a nice touch. I couldn't of asked for anything more. Very enjoyable break

“The cottage was in a lovely quiet location but a 10 minute walk to the village, the beds were lovely and comfortable so we all slept well.”

The cottage was well equipped with all the necessary equipment and more.
My only concern was that 1 of my dogs got out the gate so I don't think that it is a totally secure garden.
But saying that I would not hesitate to stay again we were all sad to leave.

“One bedroom had no door, the WiFi didn't work probably all the time - the rest was really perfect!”

we enjoyed it a lot!

- Mr Hoerhager, July 2018

“The cottage is beautiful and in a particularly lovely location, very private and with gorgeous views.”

A welcome gift of scones , cream , jam and milk was a really nice touch.
Our small dogs really enjoyed the garden but managed to escape quite easily once we turned our backs so it wasn't entirely safe for them to explore unsupervised. Never the less we all had a wonderful holiday and would thoroughly recommend Trevillick Cottage. We shall hopefully return next Summer.

“The Cottage was great & the AGA warmer made the whole house cosy in the cool of the day.”

We were delighted at our welcome with scones, jam & cream & the view over the fields of sheep, horses & cattle. We so loved the location close to Tintagel. We were able to walk the country lanes or through the fields over the stiles to the village or the castle. The children loved playing in the garden. The Cottage was well equipped with everything you needed. Special thanks for the hair dryer. Over all ... a wonderful place to stay.

“Lovely cottage in a beautiful setting, we managed a lovely cliff top walk into Tintagel before the rain set in on the Sunday and Port Issac and Padstow were short trips.”

Milk and a cream tea were left for us which was a lovely touch. We visited with our almost two year old son and the highchair and travel cot provided were just right. We had quite a bit of snow the day before we left so the log fire was perfect to keep warm. Would definitely recommend to others and visit again ourselves, thank you

“Great location, dog friendly”

Clean as a whistle, good wifi, well equipped house with a lovely cream Aga that keeps the place warm on a late winter day - Aga is oil fired so no wood to bother about! Comfy beds and good shower. Easy walk into Tintagel - apart from the styles!!
Totally dog friendly - dogs allowed downstairs only which is good. Lovely welcome pack on arrival with dog treats so our dogs give this the paws up!
We've stayed here 3 times so that proves it's a good find :)
Happy to recommend.

The property

Tintagel 1 mile.

This detached farmhouse rests in the village of Tintagel, an area dominated by the sea, rocky coves and impressive scenery.

Tucked away at the end of a farm lane with country views from every window, Trevillick Cottage is perfect for families or a group of friends wishing to truly get away from it all, with exposed interior stone walls, slate floors and a beamed ceiling bringing your getaway to life.

The cottage commences with a homely kitchen continuing through to a light, airy dining area which includes seating for four people, and views over towards the neighbors field.

The dining room comprises of an AGA cooker, which sits within an arched stone fireplace, and the sitting room is centred by a woodburning stove.

Make your way up to the first floor to be welcomed by the three bedrooms; as well as a double and twin set-up, there is also a bunk room providing access to a fantastic decked balcony with sea views on clear days, and also the exceptional family bathroom.

For your convenience, a shower room is situated on the ground floor too.

Outdoors, the garden is home to a delightful pond with its own resident frogs.

There is a picnic table with a barbecue where you can enjoy dining in the fresh air, and a patio by the front door with a table and two chairs for a sunny morning.

For the energetic, the Coast Path passes through the village and in both directions it winds its way along the cliffs and down to the water’s edge through dramatic countryside.

Head north along the path and in 2.5 miles is the beautiful village of Boscastle with its quaint quay and village pubs for refreshment.
